Guide Scope

One scope with multiple functions—your practical choice.

ToupTek Astro Finder/Guide Scope integrates star finding, guiding, viewing, and photography into a single device. Whether assisting in locating celestial bodies, locking onto observation targets, conducting daily observations, or capturing the beauty of the night sky with an attached camera, it excels at all tasks. This versatility provides users with a convenient and practical experience in one scope.

Guide Scope

Exceptional Optics, Precise Imaging

ToupTek Astro Finder/Guide Scope features a 45mm aperture with multi-layer broadband coated lenses, ensuring high light transmission and sharpness. This results in finer star points and provides better guiding images.

Guide Scope

Sturdy Structure, Flexible Assembly

The entire body is CNC machined from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy, ensuring high-precision fit and structural stability. The primary lens tube features a semi-modular design, allowing the four-section assembly to be freely removed and flexibly adapted to various observation and photography needs. The standard 1.25" interface at the end is compatible with mainstream guide cameras, and by removing the three-point locking screws, it can connect to cooled or planetary cameras with an M42 interface, offering strong compatibility.

Recommended to be used in combination with ToupTek Astro GPM/GPCMOS/G3M series guide cameras.

D45F4.5/5.6 Guide Scope FS-200AC

I am disapointed of the quality of the focuser, it arrives with 2 of the 4 screw focuser not Even installed (loose in the bag) on the focuser attachement plate to scope, I realised after a 2nd night of using the crayford focuser and I should have gone for the rack & pinion configuration, thought the qualiy of my previous AAF purchase from Touptek was perfect and thus this guide scope would be in the same league... I like the Touptek product, the guide camera G3M662M purchased with this scope is also amazing but I am now considering sending the FS-200AC back to get a FS-200AR or Even maybe a FS250-AR while at it. I realize now the Small scope are no different to the big scope, the rack & pinion focusing mouvement is more repliable and predictable (less sliperry).

Very high-quality guide scope, looks great, and the focuser is simply a dream. I ordered from Touptek directly and had no problems.
